Southport, Merseyside, 4th January,2015 UK Weather. RSPCA concerned about Horse Welfare nationally. The RSPCA is bracing itself for a big influx in the number of abandoned and neglected horses. Last year was one of the worst on record. Reports of neglected horses tend to peak in the winter when animals that have managed to survive for the rest of the year start to struggle for grazing. Where there is no shelter, cold weather and rain mean the condition of animals can also deteriorate quickly. Credit: Mar Photographics/Alamy Live News


The Fair is an annual gathering of Gypsies and Travellers in the town of Appleby in Cumbria, which takes place on the first week in June, from Thursday to the following Wednesday. The fair attracts travellers and gypsies from around Britain and all over the world. They gather to meet old friends, conduct business, but primarily to trade horses. Traditionally they bath the horses in the River Eden and run on public roads to show them off to potential buyers.
